Default Bowsprit Kranzeirn to take anchor snubbing loads?

Hi All, I am looking to get a anchor snubber out on the end of my sprit. The Boat is a Flicka 20 with a bobstay and whisker stays. I was curious about removing the pin in the toggle that attaches the bobstay to the kranze iron and replacing this with a shackle that has the same diamater pin as the toggle. (3/8") anyone out there want to take a stab at this idea? And of course, no liability !!! The bowsprit is fir, and just removed last winter and rebed, and oversized G10 backing plates installed. All sprit supporting stays are in GOOD condition, and led to chainplates with substantial backing plates. Any ideas floating around out there? Thanks!!
